How to Design Google LOGO

Hi..
welcome to yet another tutorials..

this time i've decided to try the google logo design.. for that i chose the font CALIFONIA FB.. its already installed in your fonts.. so it wont be a problem for u..


the steps involved here are..

1) open a new document type the word 'Google' with the font mentioned above.. give a light grey colour for it..


2) now do some blending to the layer.. first is drop shadow.. for my design i chose 7 for distance 35 for opacity and 4 for spread.. later rasterize the layer and split each letter to each layer using lasso tool..


3) then give colours to each letter by using the colour overlay in blending as you have seen in the google logo in its home page..

ALMOST SIMILAR

now warp the picture to look like a half heart..


duplicate the layer.. flip in horizontally.. and adjust it with the half heart Colosseum.. now it looks like..


then the Eiffel tower googled out..


now use lasso tool to seperate the tower alone..


then move it into the Colosseum.. and use rotate & warp to make it look like the poster.. use some erasing works.. then now the image is perfect with the original design now the coloring thing is remaining. now merge the colosseum and tower images.. and delete all other layers.. and add hue/saturation.. for this goto image>adjust>hue/saturation.. and select the required levels..
